All these young pilot aspirants attending half baked university aviation degrees courses and Vet Fee Help sausage factory flying schools have almost no chance of getting that airline job.
Those who trained at a “real” flying school and got “real experience” in GA have even less hope. When airlines start recruiting again they’ll want candidates whom are a known quantity to them (those whom did academy or cadetship with that airline).
There’s nothing more to that rant than the typical anti-millennial/cadet rant made monthly on Pprune.
